Anti-TCR alpha + TCR beta Antibody [R73] (FITC) (A281638)

Anti-TCR alpha + TCR beta Antibody [R73] (FITC)

Mouse monoclonal [R73] antibody to TCR alpha + TCR beta (FITC).

This antibody recognises a constant determinant on the beta chain of the rat alpha/beta T cell receptor, expressed by 97% of peripheral rat T cells as defined by the OX-52 marker. R73 is mitogenic for unseparated spleen cells and for purified T cells. In the rat thymus, mature medullary cells express the R73 determinant at the same levels as peripheral T cells, whereas 94% of CD4 - CD8 - thymocytes are R73 negative. Mouse anti Rat TCR alpha/beta antibody, clone R73 is reported to stimulate adhesion between Thymic Dendritic Cells and Thymocytes.
